WILMA JEANNETTE KELLER A Funeral Mass for Wilma Jeannette Keller, 96, Lawrence, KS, will be held at 7:00 p.m. on Friday, November 16, at Corpus Christi Catholic Church.

The family will greet friends from 5:30-6:45 in the church. At a later date, a Memorial Mass will be celebrated at St. Gall Church in Elburn, IL, with inurnment following in St. Gall Cemetery. She passed away on November 7, 2012, in Baldwin City, KS. Wilma was born on October 5, 1916 in Elburn, IL, the daughter of William Paul and Anna (Bross) Deckert.

She graduated from Elburn High School in 1934 and for the next ten years worked as a dairy maid, companion, housemaid, and cook for families in the Chicago area and in Michigan and as a clerk in Henderson, NV. When her children were in school, she returned to the workforce as a line worker for Furnas Electric until her retirement in 1978.

She married John Albert Keller on April 11, 1942 at the chapel of McCarran Army Air Force Field in Las Vegas, NV, at 6 a.m. “because that was when Father Junk said mass.” John preceded her in death on November 12, 1987.

In Illinois, Wilma was a member of the St. Gall Altar and Rosary Society and the Elburn American Legion Auxiliary; in Lawrence, she attended Corpus Christi Church.

She became a Chicago Cubs fan in the 1930’s, when Tuesdays were ladies’ day at Wrigley Field, admission was 10 cents, and you wore hat, gloves, and your secondbest dress. Her fidelity to the Cubs, and her optimism about their prospects, never waned.

The daughter of an accomplished musician, Wilma loved music, and when some of grandchildren developed a similar interest, she did everything to foster their abilities, from purchasing music and recordings to figuring out, when she was in her mid-70’s, how to shoehorn a 3/4 size upright bass into her

Crown Victoria.

She loved to cook, and everyone she fed had a favorite—rhubarb cobbler, chop suey, roast beef and gravy, lemon meringue pie, or spaghetti casserole.

(Only John loved her liver dumplings, but she made them for him anyway.)

She was renowned for the vats of coleslaw she prepared for the church’s St. Patrick’s Day dinner.

Wilma’s true vocation was as a wife, mother, grandmother, and friend.

She was wise, tolerant, and giving, not only to her husband, children, and grandchildren but also to her nieces and nephews and to many others who needed a confidante or a surrogate mom or grandma.

Survivors include daughter, Jeannette Johnson and husband, Dan, Lawrence, KS; son, William J. Keller and wife Cheryl, Elburn, IL; four grandchildren, Kevin Keller and wife Susan, Kim Provenzano, Thomas Johnson and wife Corey Heiberger, and Eric Johnson; and three greatgrandchildren, Alex Keller and Nicolette and Joseph Provenzano. She was also preceded in death by her sister, Clara L. Hewitt and great-granddaughter, Gianna Provenzano.

Wichita dedicates veterans memorial site WICHITA (AP) — Supporters of Wichita’s newest veteran’s memorial took an important step toward their goal of opening the memorial by Veterans Day next year.

On Sunday, the site of the Operation Freedom Memorial was dedicated in Veterans Memorial Park in Wichita.

The memorial will include a sculpture in the center of a 25-foot diameter circle. It will be surrounded by three

8-foot black granite walls, which will carry the names of the nearly 100 Kansans killed in action in Iraq and Afghanistan.

However, Operation Freedom Foundation still needs thousands of dollars before the monument can be built.

Anita Dixon began working to create the memorial after her son, Sgt. Evan Parker, died in Iraq in 2005.

She says it’s important that all Kansans in the service be recognized.

Train derails at Grantville

by Meagan Thomas mthomas@ljworld.com

A Union Pacific train derailed Monday night just north of the city limits of Grantville.

Jefferson County Sheriff Jeff Herrig said officials received the call about the derailment about 9:35 p.m. Grantville is about 25 miles west of Lawrence, along U.S. Highway 24.

It is a few miles east of North Topeka.

Twenty-three coal cars were involved in the accident. There were no injuries, Herrig said, but one house was damaged when a piece of rail went through the house.

Herrig said it was very lucky there were no injuries from the derailment because the piece of the rail landed on the bottom bunk of a bunk bed, and a child was sleeping on the top bunk.

Both roads leading into the town were closed Monday night, and Herrig said he was unsure when the roads would reopen.

Supreme Court to hear Kline’s ethics case TOPEKA (AP) — A Kansas Supreme Court with five different justices sitting in will hear arguments Thursday over whether former Attorney General Phill Kline should be punished for his handling of investigations into abortion providers in Kansas.

Kline is accused of misleading other officials during investigations of abortion clinics in Overland Park and W i c h i t a Kline while he was attorney general and later the Johnson County district attorney. Kline strongly disputes the allegations.

Arguments will be heard Thursday by two Kansas Court of Appeals judges and three district court judges and two state Supreme Court justices.

The high court’s five other justices removed themselves, citing their previous knowledge of the allegations. It’s not clear when the court would rule, Supreme Court spokesman Ron Keefover said.

The attorneys for both sides will get 30 minutes each for arguments — twice the time normally given in high court hearings. The hearing is not included on the court’s regular docket, The Topeka Capital-Journal reported Monday.

The Disciplinary Administrator, a state agency that oversees the conduct of Kansas lawyers, wants the Supreme Court to disbar Kline. In October 2011, the Kansas Board for Discipline of Attorneys recommended that Kline’s law license be suspended indefinitely, a step below disbarment. An indefinite suspension allows an attorney to get a law license back after three years.

The state board said Kline repeatedly misled other officials or allowed subordinates to mislead others during the investigation of abortion clinics.

Kline, who is now a visiting professor at Liberty University in Lynchburg, Va., has called the complaint politically motivated.

Library prepares to set up temporary shop

Kan. sex crime convict in Boy Scout files WICHITA — A man placed in the Boy Scouts’ so-called “perversion files� in 1968 went on to sexually assault a 6-yearold in 1992. The next year, Gerald V. Ashworth raped a mentally disabled woman and fondled another disabled woman.

The mother of the raped woman says she wonders now whether her daughter might have avoided becoming a victim if the file had been public.

The Wichita Eagle isn’t naming the mother to protect her daughter’s identity. Ashworth used his access as a volunteer and Sunday school teacher to drive the woman’s daughter from a church to a vacant home and rape her.

Now 50, her daughter no longer goes to church and always travels with a trusted adult. The earliest the 74-year-old Ashworth could be released from prison is in 2014.

Districts surveyed on cursive handwriting

Virtual school drives enrollment growth

TOPEKA — The Kansas Department of Education is asking school districts how extensively they’re teaching cursive handwriting.

Results of a survey will be presented to the state Board of Education at a meeting this week in Topeka.

Schools around the country are spending less time on handwriting instruction as students do more of their work on computers. Experts say students accustomed to writing on computers at home have a hard time seeing the relevance of spending hours practicing handwriting.

But the National Association of State Boards of Education wrote in a September policy update that there are benefits.

The association says handwriting is a basic skill that can help students in reading, writing, language use and critical thinking.

ONLINE: See a chart of the Lawrence school district’s student transfers at LJWorld.com

Enrollment in the Lawrence school district grew slightly more than budget officials had projected earlier this summer, which means they’ll have about $57,000 more to spend in the current school year than they had budgeted in August.

That’s a relatively small amount within the district’s total budget of about $141 million.

School board members were briefed on the semi-official enrollment numbers during their meeting Tuesday night.

According to the headcount of enrollment taken Sept. 20, there were

11,458 students enrolled, either full time or part time, in Lawrence public schools.

That includes 9,998 students at “brick-andmortar� schools, and 1,460 in virtual school.

That’s an increase of 235 students from last year. Of those, 164 (about 70 percent) were enrolled in the district’s virtual school, a program that allows students to study and receive classroom instruction online.

The head-count enrollment translates to 9,828.9 “full-time equivalent� students in the district, an increase of 124.9 from last year.

However, in the complex world of Kansas school finance, not all students count equally for budget purposes. The

state formula applies weightings for certain kinds of students, reflecting the fact that they are more costly to educate than others.

For example, each “atrisk� student — those who qualify for free Doll lunches — counts as about 1.5 students for funding purposes. Special education students, English language learners, students enrolled in vocational education and students who have to be bused long distances also receive weightings.

With all of those factors included, the total

“weighted� enrollment in Lawrence schools stood at 17,345.4 on Sept.

20 — exactly 11 more than district officials had projected when the board approved its budget in August.

Superintendent Rick Doll said the district had planned for an increase of 73 students in brick-and-mortar schools. The actual increase was 71.

Those numbers were based in part on projections provided by a consulting firm, RSP and Associates, although district officials made some adjustments to those numbers, Doll said.

He said one key adjustment involved accounting for transfers Please see ENROLLMENT, page 4A

Mobile home park won’t be converted to apartments Editor’s note: These are excerpts from Chad Lawhorn’s Town Talk column that appears on LJWorld.com daily, Monday through Friday. The print edition of Town Talk appears frequently.

The mobile homes already are largely gone, but so too is a deal that would have converted Gaslight Mobile Home Village east of 31st and Iowa streets into a large new apartment community for university students.

A developer with the Texas-based group that was planning the project has confirmed to me the deal has fallen apart.

Now, speculation is growing that at least a portion of the approxi-

mately 40-acre mobile home park is set to become a major new retail development.

So far, I can tell you there is some smoke to that rumor. And you know what they say — where there is smoke, there usually is Chad Lawhorn doing a home

ĉŽ

improvement project that has set something on fire.

Which of course means that I have to go back to Home Depot to get more supplies.

But if this rumor comes to fruition, Home Depot may not be my only option. At the moment, the totally unconfirmed speculation is that Menards has an interest in locating its chain of big box home improvement centers next door to the Home Depot that is at 31st and Iowa streets.

Again, it is all unconfirmed, but there are two interesting developments that make this worthy of at least keeping an eye on.

They are: — The property no longer is set to become

a 1,000-bedroom student apartment community.

Even though Austin, Texas-based development company Aspen Heights received all the necessary land use approvals to build the major apartment community, the company is no longer interested.

The reason? It feels like the market is drying up in Lawrence. “Regrettably, the university’s enrollment numbers haven’t been strong, and they’re not anticipated to be strong in the near future,� said Charlie Vatterott, executive vice president of development for Aspen Heights. “We were very excited about that market at one time, but we have tempered that excitement.�

As a result, Aspen Heights never finalized its purchase of the Gaslight property from its longtime owners, an Edwardsville-based management company. — I contacted an officer with the Edwardsville company that owns the mobile home park, and he made statements that led me to believe there may be some truth to the idea that retail development of the site is being contemplated. “It would be premature for me to say at this time,�

Tom Horner III said when I asked him directly whether he was discussing a deal to convert the property to a retail use.

Local health officials are urging residents to take precautions against pertussis, also known as whooping cough, due to a resurgence of the illness, especially in the Baldwin City area.

The Lawrence-Douglas County Health Department reported 23 cases of pertussis in October and is investigating additional cases.

So far this HEALTH year, 84 cases have been reported in Douglas County, compared to 17 cases in all of 2011. Statewide, there have been 588 cases so far this year, compared with 52 in 2011.

Pertussis is a contagious respiratory disease caused by bacteria. It spreads through coughing or sneezing in proximity with others.

Symptoms are similar to those of the common cold: runny nose or congestion, sneezing and occasionally a mild cough or fever.

Infants and children with the disease may cough violently and rapidly, over and over, until the air is gone from their lungs and they’re forced to inhale with a loud “whooping� sound.

In rare cases, about 1 out of 200, pertussis can be fatal, especially in children age 1 and younger. — Education reporter Peter Hancock can be reached at 832-7259. Follow him at Twitter.com/pqhancock.

AVOIDING PERTUSSIS

To stop the spread of pertussis, health officials recommend:

Contacting your physician by phone if you have any symptoms.

Taking all medication if recommended and isolating yourself.

Staying home when you are ill.

Covering your cough.

Ensuring you and your children are up to date on immunizations for pertussis. The immunizations are commonly known as DTaP or Tdap.

The health department offers pertussis vaccines through its walk-in clinic, 200 Maine St. Some adults may be eligible to receive the vaccine at a reduced rate if they meet certain income guidelines.

For clinic hours, visit the health department’s website at Please see TOWN TALK, page 4A ldchealth.org/contact.

Advocate Lilly Ledbetter discusses Town Talk fight to get equal pay, pass bill CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A

By Meagan Thomas mthomas@ljworld.com

A room full of men and women, young and old, gave a standing ovation to advocate Lilly Ledbetter when she finished her lecture Monday night at Kansas University. Ledbetter spoke about how she fought to receive equal pay as a woman and her work to pass the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Restoration Act. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was an ordinary person living the American dream ... not knowing I was being shortchanged,â&#x20AC;? she said.

After 19 years of working for Goodyear Tires, Ledbetter received an anonymous note showing she made 40 percent less pay than her white male counterLedbetter parts. The next day she filed a case for employment discrimination, which was the start of a nine-year battle with the company. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I had no idea I was so underpaid,â&#x20AC;?

Ledbetter said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;(My pay) wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even in the gate, much less the ballpark (of the menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pay).â&#x20AC;?

When the case reached a federal court in 2003, Ledbetter was awarded $3.8 million, but Goodyear was quick to appeal. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I knew going in Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d never get any money,â&#x20AC;?

Ledbetter said.

LILLY LEDBETTER, AT CENTER BEHIND PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA, watches the signing of the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Restoration Act in the East Room of the White House in Washington on Jan. 29, 2009. Ledbetter spoke about equal pay for women at Kansas University on Monday night.

Despite the fact that she wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get the funds to make up the 40 percent difference, Ledbetter kept fighting the case because the law was on her side.

Eventually, the Supreme Court ruled in favor of Goodyear, which caused Ledbetter and her lawyer to go to Washington, D.C., to try to get the Fair Pay Restoration Act passed. It was supported by both Republicans and Democrats, and Ledbetter believes that is because the bill has nothing to do with either party but instead is a fundamental American right.

The signing of the bill was President Barack Obamaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first official act as president.

In other business, the board:

Authorized refinancing up to $10 million in general obligation bonds that were issued in 2006 to obtain a lower interest rate, resulting in a net savings of $1 million to $1.4 million.

Approved a contract with RSP and Associates to perform another enrollment projection, with a base contract amount of $15,000 and optional addons that could bring it to a maximum of $25,500.

Authorized the purchase of consumable Math Expressions products for grades K-5.

HAYS â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Hays education officials are moving ahead with plans for a middleschool addition that can also serve as a storm shelter.

Deputy Superintendent Richard Cain told SCHOOLS The Hays Daily News that construction on the eight classrooms at Hays Middle School could begin in April.

Cain says the district received an extension of the Sept. 16 deadline to submit plans to the Federal Emergency Management Agency. Those plans are expected to be submitted soon.

The Hays Board of Education voted in February to accept a FEMA grant to help pay for the project.

The addition will be built to FEMA specifications and can serve as a storm shelter.

The project is expected to cost about $2.7 million, with the district paying â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Education reporter Peter Hancock can about $1.4 million. be reached at 832-7259.

thought it was important for young people to hear the lecture so they could better understand the discrimination taking place that they may not be aware of. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t solve a problem that people donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t realize exists,â&#x20AC;? Lobaugh said.

Ledbetterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s speech, and the signing for her book â&#x20AC;&#x153;Grace and Gritâ&#x20AC;? that followed the lecture, were part of the Jana Mackey Distinguished Lecture Series, which was established to raise awareness of womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rights. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The most important thing is to see so many young people here,â&#x20AC;? said Christie Brungard, Mackeyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mother and co-founder of the Janaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Campaign group. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Both young men and women need to know: Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not there yet.â&#x20AC;?

Brownback to host pheasant hunt OAKLEY â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Dozens of hunters have signed up to join Gov. Sam Brownback in Oakley this week for a four-day event spotlighting pheasant hunting in northwestern Kansas.

The second annual Governorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Brownback Ringneck Classic will benefit four nonprofit organizations.

They include the Logan County Health Care Foundation and the Buffalo Bill Cultural Center, which will serve as headquarters for the gathering.

The invitational event will feature trap and sporting clay shootings on Thursday and Friday. A seven-hour hunt takes place on Saturday, with an extra hunt on Sunday.

Brownbackâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office says four soldiers from the 1st Infantry Division, 2nd Brigade at Fort Riley will be special guests of the governor.

Horner, though, said he may have information to share in the next 30 to 60 days.

For what it is worth, the Aspen Heights executive I talked with said he had heard the same rumors that I had about retail development being a strong possibility for that site.

In short, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m pretty confident the idea of retail development on the Gaslight property is drawing strong consideration from several players. What I am less confident in is whether Menards is the leading candidate to bring a deal forward. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve heard it from multiple people, but that may be more wishful thinking rather than direct knowledge.

A Menards deal in Lawrence, though, would fit with what the home improvement retailer has been doing. Menards recently opened stores in Salina, Manhattan, Topeka, and St. Joseph, Mo., in addition to having two stores in Wichita. The Kansas market is on the companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s radar.

Locating a big box retail store at that site â&#x20AC;&#x201D; which, if you are not familiar with it, is directly east of Home Depot â&#x20AC;&#x201D; wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be a cut-and-dried matter at City Hall. The property is zoned for medium-density apartment development.

Furthermore, the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s long-range planning documents donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t call for retail development on that site.

The site also has a history of neighbors opposing retail development on the property. Years ago when the Home Depot/ Best Buy development was proposed, several neighborhood groups argued against the proposal.

One of the compromises brought forward was that retail development would be limited to just the 31st and Iowa intersection and would not stretch farther east.

But that was an entirely different City Commission with a different set of politics. It will be interesting to watch how commissioners react to any retail proposal that comes forward. If a plan is filed before the April City Commission elections, you can count on this becoming a big political issue.

City officials are poised to install decorative pieces of art glasswork throughout the Lawrence Public Library project and even into the adjacent parking garage. The idea is part of a $75,000 line item in the library budget that calls for public art to be included in the $19 million expansion project.

In October, city officials received proposals from 71 artists across the country seeking to win the $75,000 commission.

An eight-member committee of artists, library employees and city officials has recommended Kansas City-area artists

L AWRENCE J OURNAL -W ORLD Dierk Van Keppel and John Shreve to undertake the project.

The recommendation still must be approved by the Lawrence Cultural Arts Commission and the Lawrence City Commission.

The artists propose six pieces of glass artwork both inside and outside the library project. Hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a look: â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Slivers of colored glass will be embedded into the concrete that leads to the entrance of the library. The amount and intensity of glass will increase as pedestrians get closer to the entrance. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Pieces of multicolored art glass will be attached to the mesh-like metal screen that will encase the multilevel parking garage. The proposal says the glass will â&#x20AC;&#x153;challenge visitors to read space, surface and material in a different way.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A multicolored glass fountain will be in the outdoor plaza area between the library and the parking garage. The glass will have a protective layer to make it a sturdy structure. In fact, the artists are billing the fountain as â&#x20AC;&#x153;climbable, sittable and viewable.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Colorful glass panels will identify local pieces of artwork scattered throughout the library and its site. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Multiple panels of art glass will be suspended in the two-story atrium of the new library. The artists say the panels will morph into a â&#x20AC;&#x153;dynamic sculpture that suggests pages of a book that have been recast into new form and meaning.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Small pieces of art glass will be â&#x20AC;&#x153;subtly layeredâ&#x20AC;? into the windows of the reading room. I believe most of the reading rooms look out over Watson Park, so the pieces of glass will be designed as lenses for people to see the landscape in a different way.

Van Keppel and Shreve have connections to Kansas University. Van Keppel was a founder of Lawrenceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Free State Glass studio in 1986, but by 1991 he had left to establish Rock Cottage Glassworks in Merriam, which he operates today. He has completed many public art projects, including pieces at the H&R Block World Headquarters in Kansas City, at Sprint World Headquarters in Overland Park, and at various area restaurants including the Leawood Hereford House, Lidiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and Yia Yiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s.

Shreve is a senior vice president and senior urban designer with the HOK architecture firm in Kansas City, Mo. Shreve

â&#x20AC;&#x201D; who has worked on urban design projects ranging from the area around the San Francisco Giants ballpark to helping design an ecological golf course resort community in Dubai â&#x20AC;&#x201D; received his masterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s degree in American Studies from KU and currently is a doctoral student in the KU program.

The Lawrence Cultural Arts Commission is expected to consider the recommendation at its meeting at 7 p.m. Wednesday at City Hall. City commissioners are expected to consider the recommendation in the next several weeks.

Hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a tidbit I learned Sunday from the Lawrence Community Shelterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s annual Chocolate and Tea at Three fundraiser.

I had seen a couple of weeks ago that a commercial real estate site had started advertising several thousand square feet of industrial space for rent at the shelterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new location, which is a former warehouse building next to the Douglas County Jail.

The 10,000-square-foot space is the part of the building the shelter has planned to use for its jobs program. That is still the plan, but the shelter now is hoping it can rent the space to a company that will employ guests of the shelter.

Shelter director Loring Henderson told the crowd the shelter is close to signing a contract with Berry Plastics and a local printing company.

The site would be used to print logos on some Berry products, and guests of the shelter could get work there learning packaging, shipping and other job skills. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; City reporter Chad Lawhorn can be reached at 832-6362.

â&#x20AC;˘ A 19-year-old Haskell Indian Nations University student was arrested early Monday morning on a charge of attempted rape, according to Lawrence Police Sgt. Trent McKinley.

Police were called to the Haskell campus about 4 a.m. A female student there reported that the suspect followed her into her room and assaulted her, McKinley said.

Bond has not yet been set in the case.

State still working out faulty DMV system TOPEKA (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A new motor vehicle system has improved some of its problems with waiting times but enough local issues remain to prevent the state from making the final $2 million payment on its contract with 3M Co., a spokeswoman for the Kansas Department of Revenue said.

The system to help drivers renew license tags and register their cars caused long delays and lines at motor vehicle offices across the state after it was introduced in May, prompting anger from residents and county treasurersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; offices.

Revenue Secretary Nick Jordan has said the state wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make the last payment on its $25 million contract with 3M until all the problems are fixed.

The revenue department previously said the company will receive its full payment when it resolves problems with response times, availability, computer bugs and maintenance. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re working through some things,â&#x20AC;? said Jeannine Koranda, the departmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s spokeswoman. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We do have localized issues, but instead of the big statewide problems we were having initially, what weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re seeing more of now are individual problems.â&#x20AC;?

The problems caused

conflict between several counties and the revenue department, particularly when some larger counties were forced to pay thousands of dollars in overtime and hire new workers in response to the computer glitches.

Koranda said the revenue department disbursed $560,000 to the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 105 counties in October, The Topeka Capital-Journal reported Monday.

The lines that kept some people waiting nearly all day during the summer have mostly ended, Koranda said.

However, transactions still take longer, said Marsha Ralston, deputy Shawnee County treasurer.

The office used to issue 75 titles an hour and now generally does about 25 an hour, she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re getting used to it, but thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still not enough hours in the day,â&#x20AC;?

Ralston said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know if that will ever change.â&#x20AC;?

societyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s collective good. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The awarding of Mr. Nezâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s degree reflects our aspirations for our graduates to change the world,â&#x20AC;?

Anderson said.

Sara Rosen, KUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s senior vice provost for academic affairs, spoke to affirm that Nezâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;extraordinary circumstancesâ&#x20AC;? merited his degree. Rosen, also a professor of linguistics, said that the platoonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Navajo-based code â&#x20AC;&#x201D; designed to stump even native speakers of the language â&#x20AC;&#x201D; has been included in textbooks and courses far and wide. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Navajo Code Talkers, as they were called, developed a military code that has for decades now been a legend that linguists have read about, and have been in awe of,â&#x20AC;? Rosen said.

Nezâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s receipt of his degree was greeted with thunderous applause. But during his time as a KU student, before he was forced to withdraw when his GI Bill funding expired in 1952, no one knew what heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d done in the Pacific.

The Code Talkersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; exploits were kept classified until 1968.

His son Michael recalls that on the day the information was released, Chester gathered his family in the living room of their Albuquerque, N.M., home to finally talk about being a Code Talker.

Only since then, as Michael has watched his father receive all sorts of honors and even join MGM Studios on a press junket for the 2002 film â&#x20AC;&#x153;Windtalkers,â&#x20AC;? has he realized how significant Chesterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s achievements were. His father is now the lone surviving member of the 29 original Code Talkers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s received a lot of awards, a lot of plaques and a lot of things from different organizations,â&#x20AC;?

Michael said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But I think this is up there on the top.â&#x20AC;?

Chester said before the event Monday that his time at KU was dear to him and a point of pride, and to receive a degree would bring him joy. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one thing I never expected to receive,â&#x20AC;?

Nez said.

In addition to his degree,

Tuesday, November 13, 2012 Chester received numerous other gifts from various dignitaries Monday.

Lawrence Mayor Bob Schumm presented a key to the city. Stephen Prue, executive assistant to the president of Haskell Indian Nations University, gave him a cedar box from two fellow Marine veterans on the staff at Haskell. Kevin Corbett, president of the KU Alumni Association, gave Nez a class ring, leading his family members in the audience to gasp.

He received decorated blankets from the KU Native Faculty and Staff Council and the Department of Visual Art. One came with an embroidered inscription: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Chester Nez Câ&#x20AC;&#x2122;12,â&#x20AC;? denoting Nez as a 2012 graduate of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences.

Since he left KU for Albuquerque in 1952, Nez said he had worked various jobs before landing one with a Veterans Affairs hospital that allowed him to incorporate his beloved craft of painting. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He was a wonderful artist,â&#x20AC;? Michael said.

hard of hearing, he lost both legs to diabetes and experienced the deaths of several family members. But 10 relatives came with him to Lawrence on Monday, including a high-achieving great-grandson who aims to attend Stanford University, Michael said.

Avila interviewed Nez for a period of three years before releasing â&#x20AC;&#x153;Code Talker: The First and Only Memoir By One of the Original Navajo Code Talkers of WWII.â&#x20AC;? She said heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been troubled by nightmares in which he imagines heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s surrounded

by Japanese soldiers.

But his recognition as a Code Talker has helped turn the latter period of his life into a celebration, she said. And a degree from his beloved KU will only add to that. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Oftentimes he asked people at book signings, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Have you ever been to Lawrence, Kansas? Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s where I went to school,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? Avila said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Now he can say, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s where I got my degree.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Kansas University reporter Matt Erickson can be reached at 832-6388.

Trafficway. The project would include the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s multigym recreation center and several KU facilities, including a softball stadium, track and field stadium and soccer field.

The idea of putting the $25 million recreation center to a vote has gained traction with some residents. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We know a lot of people are interested in having a public vote because it is a huge outlay of money,â&#x20AC;? said Leslie Soden, a leader of a new citizens group called Madre Lawrence, which hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t taken an official position on the recreation center project. â&#x20AC;&#x153;One of the problems the city has been having with this project over the last six months is getting public buy-in of the project.â&#x20AC;?

Three of the four city commissioners the JournalWorld was able to speak with in recent days, though, said they were not currently considering asking for voter approval of the project. All three â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Mayor

Topeka park is energy classroom TOPEKA (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The old milk barn on the former grounds of the Topeka State Hospital may not look like much. But to Chris Albert, general director of central services for Topeka school district, the barn, long unused, holds a world of possibilities.

In the unseasonably warm weather of Friday afternoon, about a dozen workers were busy putting a new roof on the white barn. With its two towering grain silos, the barn is being converted into the learning center that will be a key feature of the Kanza Education and Science Park. The center will include exhibits on electricity and renewable energy. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We want to excite kids to be electrical engineers,â&#x20AC;? said Albert, who updated the school board on the parkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s progress at a recent board meeting. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an industry that pays well.â&#x20AC;?

The project is well under way. To the west of the barn stands a 160-foot, 100-kilowatt wind turbine, easily visible to cars driving along Interstate 70 since its completion last spring. To the barnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s east are mounds of dirt and construction machinery, where Westar Energy is building a new substation.

Once the learning center and adjacent substation are finished, students visiting the park will be able to learn about the electricity generated by the turbine, as well as by photovoltaic panels on the barnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s roof. They also will learn how substations work and how cables transport electricity.

Energy is just one area of science that visitors will be able to learn about, said Larry Robbins, deputy superintendent of operations for the school district. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What you have here is a multiple-acre classroom,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Administrators envision everything from kiosks in the adjacent grassland that would explain ongoing science projects there, to botanical labels that would show off the dozens of tree species in the park.

While many of the projects are still in the pipeline, others are nearing completion. That includes a new cafe that will be open to the public. The Kanza CafĂŠ, located in the Southard building, could launch as soon as next month, Robbins said.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m hearing the question raised from time to time, and I think it is something to consider.

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re talking about a big project, and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re talking about issuing bonds for a big project.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; City Commissioner Mike Amyx, who has said he doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to rule out the idea of a public vote on the proposed rec center Bob Schumm, City Commissioner Mike Dever and Carter â&#x20AC;&#x201D; pointed to the language on the 1994 ballot. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I believe the understanding of the voters at that time is that the majority of the dollars would be spent to enhance our recreation facilities in the community,â&#x20AC;? Dever said.

The 1994 vote Large amounts of the revenue generated from the 1994 sales tax have been spent on recreation projects. The cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s parks and recreation website estimates more than $30 million has been spent on recreation projects since 1994.

The proposed recreation center â&#x20AC;&#x201D; which would include eight gyms, a walking trail, fitness room and other amenities â&#x20AC;&#x201D; would dwarf all previous recreation projects.

The next largest recre-

ation project funded by the sales tax was the $9 million Lawrence Indoor Aquatic Center, which opened in 2001. Other major projects include:

$3.2 million for Eagle Bend Golf Course in 1998.

$2.9 million in renovations to the Lawrence Outdoor Aquatic Center.

$2 million in renovations to the East Lawrence Recreation Center in 1997.

$2 million for the Clinton Lake Softball Complex in 1997.

$950,000 for Prairie Park Nature Center in 1999.

City officials have acknowledged that part of the reason the costs of the proposed recreation center now are at $25 million is because there is an economic development component to the project.

The city is projecting the large facility will attract

about 30 events annually, such as youth tournaments and sports camps.

City officials havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t put a number on how much a traditional recreation center would cost, but a year ago the city was considering plans for a five-gym center that also would include a fitness room and walking track for $12 million in public funding and about $3 million in private funding.

When voters went to the polls in 1994, the idea of building a community recreation center was discussed â&#x20AC;&#x201D; it was planned for Centennial Park â&#x20AC;&#x201D; but the idea of building a 181,000-square-foot regional recreation center that would also serve as an economic development tool was not. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I understand the question is whether this is an overreach in terms of economic development,â&#x20AC;?

Mayor Bob Schumm said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think it is. We will be able to serve some tournaments, which will be great, but we also have established the fact that we are severely short of indoor gym space for a community our size. This will meet a local need.â&#x20AC;?

Other needs The 1994 ballot language, however, didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just address recreation projects. Property tax relief was a major selling point to the public. The city annually uses the sales tax to replace the equivalent of 5 mills of property taxes in its general operating fund.

In 2012 that is about $4.2 million.

The ballot language also called for the â&#x20AC;&#x153;acquisition, construction and improvement of facilitiesâ&#x20AC;? for Bert Nash, the Health Department, and Visiting Nurses.

During the campaign, that provision of the ballot generally was understood to refer to plans to build a new Community Health Building, which was constructed across from Lawrence Memorial Hospital.

The bonds for the health facility will be paid off in 2016, freeing up about $1 million a year for the city to spend on the recreation center project. But the 1994 ballot language doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t provide any indication on whether voters were assuming that the $1 million a year would be invested in recreation

projects or whether it would be reinvested into other facility needs for the health organizations.

The ballot language also was written in a way to give the city authority to spend sales tax money on any other â&#x20AC;&#x153;general governmental purpose.â&#x20AC;?

Over the years, the city has used the sales tax money for a variety of purposes, most notably spending between $350,000 to $500,000 a year on street maintenance, an item that wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t presented to the electorate in 1994.

City Commissioner Mike Amyx, who has expressed concerns about the costs of the proposed project, has said he doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to rule out the idea of a public vote on the matter. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m hearing the question raised from time to time, and I think it is something to consider,â&#x20AC;?

Amyx said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re talking about a big project, and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re talking about issuing bonds for a big project.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; City reporter Chad Lawhorn can be reached at 832-6362. Follow him at Twitter.com/clawhorn_ljw.

Osage County Golden glow among festival of lights certifies vote in tight House race

By John Hanna Associated Press

LYNDON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Officials in one northeast Kansas county certified its results Monday in a close state House race, expanding the Republican challengerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lead over a Democratic incumbent amid a legal battle over another countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vote counting.

The Osage County Commission reviewed dozens of provisional ballots and counted 53 with votes for either candidate in the 54th House District, which includes parts of three counties.

Afterward, D e m o cratic Rep. Ann Mah of Topeka trailed Rep u b l i c a n Mah challenger Ken Corbet, also of Topeka, by 44 votes out of nearly 10,700 cast. The margin previously Corbet had been 27 votes, so Corbet saw a net gain of 17 votes.

Seeking names Mah filed a successful lawsuit Friday in neighboring Shawnee County to force it to release the names of voters who cast provisional ballots. She and other Democrats are trying to contact them and help them correct potential problems so that their ballots will be counted.

She was hoping to pick up enough votes to defeat Corbet, having carried the Shawnee County portion of the district in unofficial results.

Secretary of State Kris Kobach objected to releasing the names and filed his own lawsuit in federal court Kobach to block the candidates from using them. He contends that votersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; privacy is at stake, but Mah and other Democrats argue that heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s trying to block her last, slim chance for overcoming Corbetâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lead because sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a vocal opponent of a law Kobach championed to require voters to show photo identification at the polls. Kobach also backed Corbet. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We were hoping for a better outcome,â&#x20AC;? Mah said as she left Osage County Courthouse in Lyndon, about 30 miles south of Topeka.

Corbet carried the smaller portions of the district in neighboring Douglas and Osage counties and hoped to contact voters casting provisional ballots to add to his totals, including in Osage County. More than 200 provisional ballots were cast in the district among

the three counties, with more than 100 in Shawnee County and almost 90 in Osage County.

The new tally in the race gives Corbet 5,365 votes after he picked up 35 in Osage County. Mah has 5,321 votes, having gained 18.

Provisional ballots are cast when election workers arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sure people are eligible to vote at particular polling places, for reasons including the lack of a proper photo ID, a recent move or, for some women, a name change upon getting married.

Each ballot is placed in an envelope and set aside for further review. Counties have until Thursday to certify their results, and Douglas and Shawnee county officials plan to wait until then.

Reviewing ballots Attorneys representing Corbet and the Republican Party argued that it wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be fair for voters in Osage County to be denied extra time to correct potential problems with their ballots. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not going to have the impetus of candidates contacting them to encourage them,â&#x20AC;? said Caleb Crook, an attorney representing the Republicans.

But the three Osage County Commission members, all Republicans, were put off by the idea of releasing the information, having received advice both from the county attorney and Kobachâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office against doing so. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What do we have a secret election for, then?â&#x20AC;? said commission Chairman Carl Meyer. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ridiculous.â&#x20AC;?

But Mah was comfortable moving ahead in Osage County, and the commission reviewed provisional ballots one by one, a job that became tedious. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t had this much fun since I cleaned the hog house out,â&#x20AC;? said commission member Kenneth Kuykendall, a farmer.

Corbet praised the commissioners for spending nearly six hours on the task. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to be confident,â&#x20AC;? he said of his lead.

The list of voter names released Friday by Shawnee County to the candidates â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and obtained

by The Associated Press from a political source â&#x20AC;&#x201D; contains 104 names of voters who cast provisional ballots on two pages, in no particular order, with no other information. Douglas County released a list of fewer than 30 names Thursday, before the legal wrangling began.

Hours after Douglas County released its list of names, Kobachâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office advised county election officials Thursday that such disclosures would violate a federal law that says: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Access to information about an individual provisional ballot shall be restricted to the individual who cast the ballot.â&#x20AC;?

Petraeus case highlights FBIâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s authority to read emails

By Richard Lardner Associated Press

WASHINGTON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Your emails are not nearly as private as you think.

The downfall of CIA Director David Petraeus demonstrates how easy it is for federal law enforcement agents to examine emails and computer records if they believe a crime was committed. With subpoenas and warrants, the FBI and other investigating agencies routinely gain access to electronic inboxes and information about email accounts offered by Google, Yahoo and other Internet providers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The government canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just wander through your emails just because theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to know what youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re thinking or doing,â&#x20AC;? said Stewart Baker, a former assistant secretary at the Department of Homeland Security and now in private law practice. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But if the government is investigating a crime, it has a lot of authority to review peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s emails.â&#x20AC;?

Under the 1986 Electronic Communications Privacy Act, federal authorities need only a subpoena approved by a federal prosecutor â&#x20AC;&#x201D; not a judge â&#x20AC;&#x201D; to obtain electronic messages that are six months old or older. To get more recent communications, a warrant from a judge is required.

This is a higher standard that requires proof of probable cause that a crime is being committed.

Public interest groups are pressing Congress for the law to be updated because it was written a quarter-century ago when most emails were deleted after a few months because the cost of storing them indefinitely was prohibitive. Now, â&#x20AC;&#x153;cloud computingâ&#x20AC;? services provide huge amounts of inexpensive storage capacity. Other technological advances, such as mobile phones, have dramatically increased the amount of communications that are

Petraeus shocked to hear of emails TAMPA, FLA. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; CIA Director David Petraeus was shocked to learn last summer that his mistress was suspected of sending threatening emails warning another woman to stay away from him, former Petraeus staff members and friends told The Associated Press Monday.

Petraeus told these associates his relationship with the second woman, Tampa socialite Jill Kelley, was platonic, though

his biographer-turnedlover Paula Broadwell apparently saw her as a romantic rival. Retired Gen. Petraeus also denied to these associates that he had given Broadwell any of the sensitive military information alleged to have been found on her computer, saying anything she had must have been provided by other commanders during reporting trips to Afghanistan.

The associates spoke on condition of anonymity because they werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t authorized to publicly discuss the matters, which could be part of an FBI investigation.

WASHINGTON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Satellite imagery indicates North Korea has been testing rocket engines, a sign it continues to develop its long-range ballistic missiles, a U.S. academic institute said Monday.

The analysis provided to The Associated Press is based on satellite images taken as recently as late September of the Sohae site on the secretive countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s northwest coast. In April, the North launched a rocket from there in a failed attempt to propel a satellite into space in defiance of a U.N. ban.

The analysis on the website of the U.S.-Korea Institute at Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies, which is called â&#x20AC;&#x153;38 North,â&#x20AC;? said it remains unclear whether the North is preparing another rocket launch but predicted it may embark on new rocket and nuclear tests in the first half of 2013.

Titanic jewels to go on display DORAVILLE, GA. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Most of the jewelry recovered from the wreckage of the Titanic will go on public display for the first time with a three-city tour.

The jewelry is from a single purserâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bag found during a 1987 research and recovery mission. The collection includes diamond and sapphire rings, brooches, necklaces, cuff links and a gold pocket watch.

Although single pieces of the jewelry have been on display at one or more permanent and traveling exhibits sponsored by Premier Exhibitions Inc., their Atlanta debut is the first time the majority of the collection has been available to the public.

The exhibit opens Friday at Premierâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s display gallery at the Atlantic Station gallery in Atlanta.

ABOARD A U.S. MILITARY AIRCRAFT OVER THE PACIFIC â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Defense Secretary Leon Panetta said Monday the Obama administration is nearing a decision in the next few weeks on how many U.S. Panetta troops would remain in Afghanistan â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and for what purposes â&#x20AC;&#x201D; after the U.S.-led combat mission ends in 2014.

Panetta told reporters aboard his plane en route from Hawaii to Australia that Gen. John Allen, the top U.S. commander in Afghanistan, has developed several options on a post2014 presence.

Panetta also was asked about his future at the Pentagon. While he declined to reveal his plans, he suggested he still had work to do on the job he took in July 2011.

He added that there are a number of important defense issues awaiting resolution, including a budget impasse and the future of U.S. involvement in Afghanistan â&#x20AC;&#x201D; suggesting that he would not leave immediately.

A subpoena is usually sufficient to require Internet companies to reveal names and any other information that they have that would identify the owner of a particular email account.

Google, which operates the widely used Gmail service, complied with more than 90 percent of the nearly 12,300 requests it received in 2011 from the U.S. government for data about its users, according to figures from the company.

Even if a Gmail account is created with a fictitious name, there are other ways to track down the user.

Logs of when messages are sent reveal the Internet address the user used to log onto the account. Matching times and dates with locations allow investigators to piece together the chain.

A Gmail account figured prominently in the FBI investigation that led to Petraeusâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; stunning resignation last week as the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s spy chief. Petraeus, a retired Army general, stepped down after he confessed to an extramarital affair with Paula Broadwell, an Army Reserve officer and his biographer.

Congress faces agenda Thousands in New York still without power after Sandy of unfinished business

By Bart Jones

By Donna Cassata Associated Press

WASHINGTON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Congress returns today to a crowded agenda of unfinished business overshadowed by the urgent need for President Barack Obama and lawmakers to avert the economic double hit of tax increases and automatic spending cuts.

One week after the elections â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and seven weeks after they last gathered in Washington, Republicans and Democrats face a daunting task in a lame-duck session that Capitol Hill fears could last until the final hours of Dec. 31. But even before serious budget negotiations can begin, lawmakers will tackle leftover legislation on trade with Russia, military budgets and aiding farmers still reeling from the summerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s drought.

The first days back will be a mix of old and new â&#x20AC;&#x201D; choosing down-ballot leaders in the Senate while

the 12 new members, three Republicans, eight Democrats and one independent, are introduced to their colleagues. The House will welcome some 70 new members who will get a crash course on how Congress operates with a class on ethics Wednesday.

While the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s voters endorsed the status quo of divided government â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a Democratic president and Senate, a Republican House â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Obama cruised to reelection and his emboldened party gained seats in both the House and Senate. In the new political order, Democrats will hold a 55-45 edge in the Senate if independent Angus King of Maine caucuses with them as expected.

Republicansâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; advantage in the House narrows and likely will stand at 233-201.

Democrats were leading in the six undecided House races in Arizona, California, Florida, North

Carolina and Utah.

The question over the next seven weeks is whether Obama and Congress can agree now or later on how to slash $1.2 trillion from the deficit, raise revenues with possible changes in the tax code and address the entitlement programs of Social Security and Medicare.

And they also have to figure out how to stop across-theboard cuts to defense and domestic programs totaling $110 billion next year.

Obama meets with congressional leaders at the White House on Friday.

Democrats and Republicans recognize the urgency, but the demands remain unchanged.

Crucial in the House this week is passage of legislation that would end Cold War trade restrictions so that U.S. exporters can take advantage of the lowered tariffs and greater market access that accompany Russiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s entry into the World Trade Organization.

MELVILLE, N.Y. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Tens of thousands of Long Islanders still were without power Monday â&#x20AC;&#x201D; two weeks after Superstorm Sandy â&#x20AC;&#x201D; with the Long Island Power Authority promising to have 99 percent of customers whose electrical systems were not too damaged up and running by Tuesday night.

LIPA said at midday that it had restored power to about 97 percent of its customers whose homes are able to receive electricity safely. Roughly 21,000 of such customers remained in the dark; officials said more than half of those should have power by Tuesday evening, with the rest to get it by Friday.

Another 46,000 customers in Nassau and Suffolk counties, and the portion of the Rockaways the utility serves will have to wait, perhaps weeks, for damaged electrical systems to be repaired before power can be restored, LIPA chief operat-

Deficit talks will test GOP focus on tax rates WASHINGTON (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Republican leaders say the government can raise tax â&#x20AC;&#x153;revenuesâ&#x20AC;? without raising tax â&#x20AC;&#x153;rates.â&#x20AC;? But they have yet to detail how they would pursue it.

The distinction might mean little to Americans who end up with larger tax bills even if their tax rates donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t change. This politically tricky tradeoff is about to take center stage in negotiations over how to reduce the federal deficit and avoid going over the â&#x20AC;&#x153;fiscal cliffâ&#x20AC;? in just seven weeks.

The White House says wealthy Americans must pay a higher tax rate to help produce more revenue to lower the deficit.

Congressional Repub-

licans refuse, and many want tax rates to fall instead. But they say they are open to other means of higher tax collections, which might include limits to itemized deductions.

About one-third of U.S. households itemize deductions rather than take the standard deduction.

Some of these itemized deductions, such as the one for mortgage interest payments, are popular and deeply ingrained in the American culture.

Many Republican lawmakers are tip-toeing around the issue. But Sen. Saxby Chambliss, R-Ga., warns of possibly huge changes affecting millions of people.

Chambliss told the At-

lanta Journal Constitution that federal revenues can be increased significantly without raising tax rates, by limiting deductions. But he noted the popularity of the most important deductions, which are granted for mortgage interest, charity gifts and health care costs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It can be done, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to require the elimination of almost allâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; if not all â&#x20AC;&#x201D; tax deductions and tax credits,â&#x20AC;? Chambliss said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be difficult.â&#x20AC;?

Congress has raised and lowered income tax rates many times over the past few decades. Currently, a married couple pays 15 percent on taxable income between $17,400 and $70,700.

Four higher tax rates apply to incomes beyond that.

The rate a couple pays is only one factor in their overall tax bill. Deductions or credits for child care, charitable giving, medical costs and other expenses can make big differences.

President George W. Bush achieved major cuts in income tax rates in 2001 and 2003. Since then, GOP lawmakers have taken increasingly tough stands against letting those cuts expire â&#x20AC;&#x201D; as they now are scheduled to do at the end of the year.

President Barack Obama campaigned this year on a pledge to end the Bush-era tax breaks for families making more than $250,000 a year. The White House said Friday he will veto any deficit-reduction package that fails to do so.

AMBER WHICHARD, 3, WALKS next to a line of people waiting to receive supplies donated to the victims of Superstorm Sandy at the Red Hook Houses in Brooklyn, N.Y., on Monday. Some of the buildings in the complex are still without power and heat from Superstorm Sandy two weeks ago. ing officer Michael Hervey said at a news conference. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There is a shift that is happening that people have to be aware of,â&#x20AC;? New York Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo said Monday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is not a power issue any longer. It is a housing issue â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and 98, 99 percent of the people who can have their power back, do. If you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have your power back, it probably means power

canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be restored to your home at this time.â&#x20AC;?

In Long Beach, one of the communities hardesthit by flooding, city officials Monday said electricity had been restored to 97 percent of homes that are able to safely receive power. About 60 of the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s approximately 10,000 homes are not safe for electricity, officials said.

Women take lead in Indiana blast probe focuses on natural gas driverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s licenses in U.S.

By Charles Wilson and Tom LoBianco

Associated Press

INDIANAPOLIS â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The search for what caused a massive, deadly explosion that rocked an Indianapolis neighborhood turned to natural gas Monday, with officials checking gas lines and a homeowner saying a problem furnace could be to blame.

The National Transportation Safety Board sent investigators to check gas main and other lines serving the neighborhood where two people were killed and seven injured in the weekend blast. Local gas supplier Citizens Energy said it also was checking gas lines and a meter at the home that exploded.

But officials cautioned that it was too soon to rule out other causes, saying only that they do not believe a meth lab was to blame for the explosion that obliterated two homes and severely damaged dozens of others. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s too early to speculate that this might have been caused by a gas leak,â&#x20AC;?

Citizens Energy spokeswoman Sarah Holsapple said at an afternoon news briefing.

The owner of one of the homes that was destroyed said there was a problem with the furnace in the last few weeks.

John Shirley, 50, of Noblesville told The Associated Press that he received a text message within the last week and a half from his daughter, who complained that the furnace in

CITIZENS ENERGY WORKERS CONTINUE THEIR INVESTIGATION Monday afternoon by digging into the front sidewalk looking for a possible explanation for the explosion of a house in Indianapolis. The search for what caused a massive, deadly explosion that rocked an Indianapolis neighborhood turned to natural gas Monday, with officials checking gas lines and a homeowner saying a problem furnace could be to blame. the home where she lived with her mother and her motherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s boyfriend had broken. The malfunction had forced them to stay in a hotel, the girl said.

When Shirley asked if the furnace had been fixed, his daughter said yes. He said he wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t aware of any additional problems until he heard from his daughter again Sunday morning. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I get a text from my daughter saying â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Dad, our home is gone.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Then I called my ex-wife and she said what happened,â&#x20AC;? he said.

His ex-wife, Monserrate Shirley, declined to comment Monday.

Scott Davis, president and principal engineer of

GexCon US, an explosion investigation firm, questioned whether a furnace could cause the type of damage seen in the neighborhood. Furnaces have multiple safety triggers that prevent them from releasing that much natural gas. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For a furnace to allow that much gas through, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d have to defeat many of the safety features,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Investigators said it could be some time before they determine a cause for the blast that sparked a massive fire, blew out windows, collapsed ceilings and shook homes up to three miles away. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a methodical investigation. You have to

U.S. forecast to become biggest oil producer The United States will become the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s largest oil producer by around 2020, temporarily overtaking Saudi Arabia, as new exploration technologies help find more resources, the International Energy Agency forecast on Monday.

In its World Energy Outlook, the energy watchdog also predicted that greater oil and natural gas production â&#x20AC;&#x201D; thanks partly to a boom in shale gas output â&#x20AC;&#x201D; as well as more efficient use of energy will allow the U.S., which now imports some 20 percent of its energy needs, to become nearly self-sufficient around 2035.

That is â&#x20AC;&#x153;a dramatic reversal of the trend seen in most other energy-importing countries,â&#x20AC;? the Parisbased IEA said in its report. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Energy developments in

DILBERT

the United States are profound and their effect will be felt well beyond North America â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and the energy sector.â&#x20AC;?

Rebounding U.S. oil and gas production is â&#x20AC;&#x153;steadily changing the role of North America in global energy trade,â&#x20AC;? the IEA said.

For example, oil exports out of the Mideast will increasingly go to Asia as the U.S. becomes more selfsufficient. That will increase the global focus on the security of strategic routes that bring Middle East oil to Asian markets. Tensions between Iran and Western powers have raised concerns that oil exports from the Persian Gulf could be blocked in a potential conflict over Tehranâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s alleged plan to develop nuclear weapons.

move one step at a time,â&#x20AC;? said Gary Coons, the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s homeland security director.

Public Safety Director Troy Riggs said investigators will treat the area as a crime scene until they rule out foul play.

The blast forced about 200 people out of their homes in the once-tidy neighborhood of one- and two-story single-family houses. Some have been allowed to reoccupy their homes, and others have been escorted in to retrieve valuables and other belongings. Adam Collins, the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s deputy code enforcement director, said 29 remained uninhabitable Monday.

Mark Karnes, whose house is four doors down from the blast site and suffered severe structural damage, hoped to retrieve clothes and look for his cat. But he also questioned the wisdom of going back inside the house given the extent of the damage. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Because the walls bowed out and separated from the ceiling, I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s safe,â&#x20AC;? he said.

WASHINGTON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Women have passed men on the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s roads. More women than men now have driverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s licenses, a reversal of a longtime gender gap behind the wheel that transportation researchers say is likely to have safety and economic implications.

If current trends continue, the gap will only widen. The share of teens and young adults of both sexes with driverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s licenses is declining, but the decline is greater for young men, according to a study by the University of Michiganâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Transportation Research Institute. The study looked at gender trends in driverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s licenses between 1995 and 2010. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The changing gender demographics will have major implications on the extent and nature of vehicle demand, energy consumption, and road safety,â&#x20AC;? predicted Michael Sivak, co-author of the study. Women are more

likely than men to purchase smaller, safer and more fuel-efficient cars; to drive less, and to have a lower fatality rate per distance driven, he said.

Over the 15 years the study covered, the share of men ages 25 to 29 years old with driverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s licenses dropped 10.6 percent. The share of women of the same age with driverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s licenses declined by about half that amount, 4.7 percent.

Male drivers outnumbered women drivers from the moment the first Ford Model T rolled off the assembly line in 1908, the year the automobile became popular, and through most of the last century. In the 1950s, when only about half of adult women had driverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s licenses, jokes about women drivers were a staple of comedians.

But the gap gradually closed. By 1995, men with driverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s licenses slightly outnumbered women, 89.2 million to 87.4 million. By 2010, 105.7 million women had licenses, compared with 104.3 million men.

Tasty or hasty?

Plans for a recreation center in northwest Lawrence are moving quickly and perhaps will be settled before some key questions are answered.

his evening’s Lawrence City Commission meeting is likely to provide the extra push that eventually will result in building the Rock Chalk Recreation Center.

Seldom, if ever, has a project of this size and cost moved so quickly through city offices. And seldom, if ever, has such a use of taxpayer dollars been approved so quickly without being approved by a vote of the city’s taxpayers.

The fact is, this, in a way, is a “perfect storm” situation in that the combination of those directly involved in the project, the timing of the effort and the potential benefits of the scheme all merge to create a situation that causes many individuals to refrain from asking a lot of questions.

There are several highly respected individuals involved and, consequently, residents are hesitant to ask questions or voice their concerns. It would be almost treasonous to question or oppose the wishes or motives of those involved.

The Kansas University Endowment Association enjoys an excellent record, but has it established a new policy that allows a generous individual who makes a substantial gift for a new KU building to also determine whom he or she wants to be the contractor and builder for the structure without a competitive bidding process?

It is questionable whether the majority of KU alumni and friends actually think the fact that KU is one of the last remaining BCS schools with a running track around its football field and lacks better softball and soccer fields is an “embarrassment to KU alumni and student-athletes, past and present,” as KU Athletic Director Sheahon Zenger wrote in a recent letter to the city.

There are other questions, but, again, raising objections or calling for more transparency on how this deal was put together is not the popular thing to do. The cost, the location, the impact on downtown Lawrence (which has been so protected in recent years), whether the contractors will own and lease the facilities to KU Athletics, and whether the terms and conditions of these leases have been negotiated are just a few questions that remain unanswered.

Has the KU Endowment Association entered into a new policy for the construction of badly needed facilities and buildings?

The overall project looks great and sounds great, but, just like the making of sausage, it’s the ingredients and how the ingredients are put together that makes the project tasty, attractive and a winner in the eyes of the consumer — or something far less appealing.

Syrians need a tougher Obama ATMA, SYRIA —Traveling inside war-wracked Syria on the U.S. Election Day was a stark reminder of how lucky we are to have a vibrant democracy, whatever its failings.

It was also a reminder that Syrian rebels who want democracy, not an Islamic emirate, hope a second-term President Obama will finally move beyond anti-regime rhetoric and take firmer action to end Bashar al-Assad’s rule.

I’m not certain their hopes will be met. But what I saw and heard in two forays into Syria, and meetings inside the Turkish border, has convinced me that Obama’s timid first-term policy on Syria, if continued, will lead to a regional disaster. And it will further diminish waning U.S. influence in the Middle East.

I know Americans are sick of Mideast wars. Yet there’s still a small chance U.S. leadership could prevent Syria from becoming a new mecca for militant jihadis. Obama’s first big foreign-policy test will be whether he recognizes what needs to be done to prevent this. (Hint: It doesn’t involve U.S. air strikes or putting American boots on the ground.)

Drive around northern Syria and you see that there is no government in charge.

“Eighty-five percent of the country is not governed by the regime,” says a concerned official in the capital of next-door Turkey, “but it is not governed by the opposition either. Syria now is a failed state.”

Revolutionary councils — ordinary citizens trying to restore services — have been set up in many towns. Meeting with council members from Aleppo, Idlib, and the Latakia suburbs, I heard the same story over and over: They have no resources, and neither the international

U.S. officials insist Assad must go but have limited Washington’s assistance to nonlethal aid to nonviolent civilians — namely, communications equipment and training courses. community nor the United States is providing any.

A refugee camp of 8,000 displaced people, near the Turkish border, with rows of white tents and water-distribution tanks, is being run wholly by expatriate Syrians struggling to raise the funding. Turkey, already home to 100,000 Syrian refugees, can take no more, even as the number of civilians fleeing the shelling and bombing continues to soar.

U.S. officials insist Assad must go but have limited Washington’s assistance to nonlethal aid to nonviolent civilians — namely, communications equipment and training courses. “We heard a lot that the U.S. would support us, but we didn’t see anything on the ground,” I was told by Suhair al-Atassi, a longtime secular opposition activist and lawyer from a famous political family.

Meantime, rebel military groups inside Syria have mushroomed. Militant reli-

gious fighters, while in the minority, find it easy to get funds from rich Gulf Arabs. Non-Islamist fighting groups, led by defecting Syrian military officers or ordinary civilians, go begging for weapons.

Efforts to create a central command of these militias — led by secular officers — have failed because they lack resources, such as antiaircraft and antitank weapons, which would enable them to create a de facto buffer zone along the border. The United States has refused to provide any arms, for fear they would go astray. But that gives the militants the upper hand.

When I met Atassi, a striking woman in a black sleeveless top, she was headed for Doha, Qatar, to a meeting Thursday of Syrian opposition activists who hope to form a new Syrian national council drawn heavily from rebels within the country.

This body could ultimately form a transitional government and serve as a conduit for international aid.

But without firm commitments from the United States, this new council will have no leverage. Moreover, unless the United States and allied countries provide secular military councils inside Syria with funds and arms, religious militias will multiply, Atassi says.

I saw what this could mean on a visit to the village of Atma, about 12 miles into Syria, where I visited the local headquarters of the Suqur al-Sham brigades, an Islamist fighting group operating in Idlib province. Young men with Kalashnikov machine guns lingered inside a walled courtyard; some were cleanshaven, but most wore beards.

I spoke with Abed Abu Hajar, 27, who wears a Salafi-

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for Nov. 13, 1912: “That the YEARS majority of cases AGO of colds in Kansas IN 1912 are due to bacterial infection and are not the result of exposure to ‘draughts’ is the opinion of Dr. S. J. Crumbine, dean of the School of Medicine of the University of Kansas. … ‘Catching cold’ is an accurate expression, because most colds are catching or contagious,’ asserts Dr. Crumbine. ‘Have you observed that if one member of a family has a cold usually all the rest will ‘catch cold’?”

style chin growth, has a French mother, and received an engineering degree in Belgium. He commands a brigade of 200 in the Idlib fighting, and enthusiastically told me the group’s objectives: “To end this regime and build an Islamic state after it is gone.”

That means governing “according to the Quran and sharia law,” said Abu Hajar.

He said his group was unlike al-Qaida because it didn’t target civilians and wouldn’t impose an Islamic state by force. Its objective, he said, was to free Syria, not to wage international war.

Yet he insisted Islam requires Muslim women to veil, forbids alcohol even to Christians, and considers the Alawite Shiite sect (10 percent of the Syrian population) un-Islamic. Inside the Suqur al-Sham courtyard were youths belonging to Jabhat al-Nusrah, a group with al-Qaida links.

Atassi says militant Salafis are still a minority in Syria. Many youths — like the clean-shaven young men I saw in the Suqur al-Sham courtyard — are drawn to religious fighting groups as this vicious war drags on.

So, Obama must decide whether it’s time to deliver aid to civilian and military groups inside Syria in hopes of ending the war sooner.

Only firm Obama backing has any chance of convincing members of the regime, or their Russian backers, that it’s time for Assad to go, Syrian activists tell me.

“We hope the Obama administration will really get involved now,” said Atassi as she headed for her flight to Doha. “We hope this time they will keep their promises.” Stay tuned.

Election praise

Unhappy Republican Contradictions

To the editor: To my knowledge the election process in Douglas County on Nov. 6 went extremely smoothly. Although I speak for myself, I’ve heard many others agree that Douglas County Clerk Jamie Shew is a key factor to that success.

The training he provided for first-time election workers was thorough and clear. He obviously has a passion for his job and is interested in continuous improvement. His emphasis on assuring that everyone has the opportunity to cast their ballot was backed up with specific procedures for election workers to follow. He helped us be prepared for all kinds of contingencies and provided contact information on multiple pages should troubleshooting on-site not solve a problem.

On Election Day, I worked for the first time with others who have worked elections before. Obviously the training they had received was excellent as well. They were knowledgeable of procedures, respectful of each other and all voters and poll watchers and a joy to work with. We each felt honored to be a part of this important process of our democracy.

Mr. Shew, of course, couldn’t have facilitated the success by himself. He leads a team of capable workers. Thank you to all of you.

To the editor: Though the recent Republican Party defeat will once again be debated, those leading this party to extinction will go right on proclaiming the sky is falling over the usual emotional nonissues, while ignoring the real problems facing our nation.

The two-party system in America has a valuable, indeed a vital, role in providing necessary balance in politics, but having embraced localized, authoritarian philosophies without bothering to look any deeper than the pile of money and votes being delivered has warped the Republican message beyond credibility or even respectability, as in Karl Rove’s distasteful collection of huge sums of super PAC money, clearly intended to buy the election in return for gigantic favors.

The Republican spin now claims that demographics did them in, when in fact, it was their lousy message to the American people.

No, I am not a Democrat crowing over another Republican debacle. I am one of those elderly, white, angry, lifelong Republicans, fed up with the radicalized nonsense the leadership of my party continues to preach as though it was gospel.

Dan Gayman, Lawrence

To the editor: The Brownback administration has been saying over and over for months that their resistance to “Obamacare” is because the citizens of Kansas want Kansas solutions to health care and don’t want the federal government to make their decisions for them.

Brownback’s decision to not form a state-federal partnership over the implementation of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and, instead, put Kansas in the pool of states that will use the default federal implementation is in direct opposition to his previous stance and contradicts what he has told us the people of Kansas have demanded.

This is just another example in a long list of Brownback’s inept and lie-laden decisions (remember when he was sure eliminating arts funding wouldn’t compromise funding from the NEA? Or when he told the state Senate their reconsideration of the massive tax cut bill would simply be a way to start negotiations with the House and he wouldn’t actually sign such a bill? Or when the Legislature told his administration to cut SRS costs by reducing administrative overhead in Topeka and they hired more administrative personnel from Florida and tried to close the Lawrence office instead? And on and on).

KANSAS MENâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S BASKETBALL

Under the lights Don Wright/AP Photo

KANSAS CITY CHIEFS QUARTERBACK MATT CASSEL (7) TRIES TO PASS as Pittsburgh Steelers inside linebacker Lawrence Timmons (94) pressures in the second quarter on Monday in Pittsburgh.

Chiefs lose off Casselâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s OT pick PITTSBURGH (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The Pittsburgh Steelers escaped with a victory. The health of their franchise quarterback is another matter entirely.

The Steelers edged the woeful Kansas City Chiefs 16-13 in overtime on Monday night but lost Ben Roethlisberger for most of the second half â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and perhaps a lot longer â&#x20AC;&#x201D; with a right shoulder injury.

Roethlisberger left early in the third quarter after getting slammed to the turf

by Kansas City linebackers Tamba Hali and Justin Houston. Coach Mike Tomlin said he was taken to a hospital for evaluation.

The Steelers (6-3) went on to their fourth consecutive victory. Shaun Suisham kicked a 23-yard field goal 51 seconds into the extra period, one play after Lawrence Timmons intercepted Kansas Cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Matt Cassel and returned it to the 5.

Jamaal Charles ran for 100 yards and a score for the Chiefs (1-8), who have lost six straight.

The Chiefs rallied in spite of themselves in the final 2 minutes. Cassel led Kansas City 52 yards â&#x20AC;&#x201D; converting a 4th-and-15 in the process â&#x20AC;&#x201D; to set up a 46-yard field goal

SOPHOMORE GUARD NAADIR THARPE PULLS HIS KANSAS UNIVERSITY TEAMMATES TOGETHER during the final minutes against Southeast Missouri State on Friday at Allen Fieldhouse. The Jayhawks will hit the road tonight for the first time this season, facing off against ranked Michigan State at the all-blue-blood Champions Classic in Atlanta.

Unproven Jayhawks face tough test against Spartans

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

ATLANTA â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The Champions Classic, which is in the second year of a three-year run, calls together powerhouse programs Kansas, Kentucky, Duke and Michigan State to take part in a one-day, early-season, best-of-the-best, made-for-ESPN doubleheader. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a great deal. The concept is great. The concept is terrific. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re happy and proud to be part of it, absolutely,â&#x20AC;? said KU coach Bill Self.

Actually the only problem with the Classic, which today pits No. 7-ranked KU against No. 21 Michigan State at 6 p.m., in the Georgia Dome, and Duke against Kentucky about 8:30 p.m., is two of the four teams must take a loss â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a trade-off for the great exposure. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a huge game out of the gate for us, much like the Kentucky game was in

â&#x20AC;&#x153;

This is just something I hope we are ready and prepared because with our young kids you never know until they get out there.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Kansas University menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s basketball coach Bill Self the Garden last year. But we werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t quite ready for that,â&#x20AC;?

Self said of a 75-65 loss to the Wildcats in the 2011 Champions Classic in New Yorkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Madison Square Garden. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Now the question is ... how are we going to play in the Georgia Dome?â&#x20AC;? he added of the 26,000-seat (for basketball) domed stadium, site of the 2012 Champions Classic event as well as the 2013 Final Four. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Last year we go to the Garden and Thomas (Robinson) struggles his butt off to score 10 points (11 points, 12 boards) and isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t any good. Our only

offense was Tyshawn getting fouled in the second half (Tyshawn Taylor had 22 points courtesy of 15 of 17 foul shooting). It was awful. That team ended up being pretty good but we were awful early.

This is just something I hope we are ready and prepared because with our young kids you never know until they get out there. I think we have got a couple that are ready to go.â&#x20AC;?

The Jayhawks are facing a Michigan State team that fell to UConn, 66-62, Friday, in its season opener in Germany.

The game served as the debut of freshman point guard Gary Harris, a 6-4 McDonaldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s AllAmerican out of Fishers, Ind. MSU, which returns four of its top six scorers from a (298) Big 10 co-champion/Sweet 16 team, also starts a sophomore in 6-6 Branden Dawson, juniors in 6-10 Adreian Payne and 6-1 Keith Appling and a senior in 6-9 Derrick Nix.

Firebirds, Lions kick off winter sports practices

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

Richard Gwin/Journal-World Photo

FREE STATE BASKETBALL PLAYERS, FROM LEFT, JUNIOR JOHN GREGORY, senior P.J. Bannister and junior Cole Moreano run drills on the first day of winter sports practice on Monday at FSHS.

Free State High junior Keith Loneker sat at home this weekend when something occurred to him: he hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t touched a basketball in about two months.

It wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t procrastination that kept the Firebirds junior from getting reacquainted with roundball.

The linebacker has been preoccupied with football season, which is very much alive at FSHS, even as winter sports practices began on Monday.

While Free State football players â&#x20AC;&#x201D; preparing for Fridayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Class 6A state semifinal against Shawnee Mission West â&#x20AC;&#x201D; practiced outdoors and dealt with the cold and wind, basketball players got to work while wearing

shorts in a warm gym. All things considered, Loneker preferred dealing with the elements. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I mean, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cold,â&#x20AC;? he said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;but I want a state championship over a couple of days of basketball.â&#x20AC;?

Loneker is one of a few FSHS football players who played significant minutes for Chuck Lawâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s boys basketball team last season. Khadre Lane, a forward and wide receiver, is new to both teams this season. Basketball is the 6-foot-4 juniorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s primary sport, but he doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mind staying with football, considering the success the Firebirds (10-1) have enjoyed.

While Law would love to have his two-sport athletes available for the first few days of tryouts, Lane said the basketball coach knows this is part of the equation.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be there soon. He understands,â&#x20AC;? Lane said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want us to lose.â&#x20AC;?

This is the third time in Lawâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tenure that football season has overlapped into the start of basketball at FSHS. He called it a challenge. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Obviously weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re all excited about the football team and the run theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re on and hopeful that they can win a state championship,â&#x20AC;? Law said.

The difficulty comes with having two sets of tryouts â&#x20AC;&#x201D; one for those players who came out Monday, and another for the football players when they are done. If the Firebirds win again and advance to the state title game, their first day of basketball would be Nov. 26. With the Please see PRACTICE, page 3B

Big 12 to battle it out for bowls CHARLESTON, W.VA. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The Big 12â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s attention is on Kansas Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s national championship dreams, yet there is plenty left to be decided in the conference over the final weeks.

Six teams are bowl eligible, with Iowa State, West Virginia and Baylor still battling for chances to fill out the leagueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bowl slots.

Kansas State (10-0, 7-0 Big 12) can clinch at least a share of its first conference championship since 2003 with a win Saturday night at Baylor. The Wildcats moved into the top spot in the Bowl Championship Series rankings after Alabama lost to Texas A&M. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re just honored to be there,â&#x20AC;? Kansas State coach Bill Snyder said Monday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m just going to encourage our guys to not change the way we approach things and try to stay grounded.â&#x20AC;?

With conferences limited to two teams in BCS bowls, four schools from the Southeastern Conference currently ranked in the top 10 will be left out, opening chances for teams like No. 13 Oklahoma and No. 18 Texas.

If Kansas State gets the leagueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s automatic berth, the Sooners and Longhorns would be eliminated from consideration for atlarge berths with another loss.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;

... everybody had Alabama already going undefeated and that didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t happen. So thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to happen in the next 2-3 weeks.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot of scenarios by the end of the year for everybody,â&#x20AC;? Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everybody wants to define it already. Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s face it, everybody had Alabama already going undefeated and that didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t happen. So thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to happen in the next 2-3 weeks. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot of scenarios. Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just keep playing and doing our part.â&#x20AC;?

The Sooners (7-2, 5-1) have won five straight conference games since losing the opener to Kansas State. Oklahoma has road games remaining at Big 12 newcomers West Virginia and TCU sandwiched around the Nov. 24 rivalry game at home with Oklahoma State.

To stay in BCS contention, the Longhorns (8-2, 5-2) would need a home win on Thanksgiving against a TCU team thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 3-1 on the road in conference

play, then beat Kansas State in the regular-season finale on Dec. 1 in Manhattan, Kan. Texas has won four straight since back-to-back losses to West Virginia and Oklahoma raised new speculation that Longhorns coach Mack Brown may consider retiring. Not only did Brown quickly dismiss the suggestions, his players have turned the season around. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The guys have just understood that we didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t play well at times against West Virginia.

We didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t play well at all against Oklahoma,â&#x20AC;? Brown said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think they just circled the wagons.

Young guys are growing up on defense. The offense continues to build and grow. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The biggest thing is they quit listening to any outside sources and went back to work. And they understood that the only thing thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important when it comes to football is the product that we put on the field. And for two weeks, the product wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t very good and it needed to get better.

Now weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to finish strong.â&#x20AC;?

Oklahoma State, Texas Tech and TCU are bowl eligible. Not counting the BCS, the Big 12 has tie-ins to seven bowls and would look for a possible open slot elsewhere if more Big 12 teams than bowls are available.

Iowa State (5-5, 2-5) plays at one-win Kansas on Saturday and finishes the regular season at home against West Virginia on Nov. 23. The Cyclones are looking for their second straight bowl appearance.

Over the summer, the Oklahoma-West Virginia game was envisioned as having title implications.

Instead, West Virginia (5-4, 2-4) is fighting to keep a 10-year streak of going to bowls intact.

The Mountaineers have lost four straight games, their longest losing streak in 11 years.

West Virginia coach Dana Holgorsen still envisions Oklahomaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first visit to Morgantown as exciting, especially for the fans. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had it circled for a while because OU is such a storied program,â&#x20AC;? Holgorsen said.

In addition to playing Oklahoma and Iowa State, West Virginia finishes the regular season at home Dec. 1 against Kansas.

Baylor (4-5, 1-5) needs two wins in its final three games to have the chance of going to an unprecedented third straight bowl.

The Bearsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; uphill trek starts Saturday at home against Kansas State, followed by a Nov. 24 matchup with No. 23 Texas Tech at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, and a Dec. 1 home game against Oklahoma State.

Tuberville apologizes for spat LUBBOCK, TEXAS (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Tommy Tuberville on Monday took full responsibility for losing his cool with a Texas Tech graduate assistant along the sideline during Saturdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s win over Kansas.

The third-year coach said he had watched a replay of his outburst after the 41-34 victory and saw what had fans upset. He called his actions â&#x20AC;&#x153;unfortunateâ&#x20AC;? and said he had apologized to Kevin Oliver, who works with special teams. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It upset me, too,â&#x20AC;? Tuberville said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do things like that, and it was obvious I reached up, grabbed his headset and pulled on it. Heat of the battle, some things happen sometimes that youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to take back.â&#x20AC;?

Tuberville said he did not strike Oliver.

Video of the confrontation went viral on the Internet on Saturday. It shows Tuberville angrily facing Oliver and appearing to strike him after the Red Raiders had difficulty getting the right personnel on the field.

Tuberville was hired to replace Mike Leach, who was fired in 2009 for alleged mistreatment of a player with a concussion. Tuberville said he needs to set an example on acceptable sideline behavior to his two sons â&#x20AC;&#x201D; one is a walk-on freshman quarterback at Texas Tech â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and to Red Raiders players. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to hold myself to higher regard than that, and usually do,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Djokovic prevails over Federer in ATP finals LONDON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Novak Djokovic recovered from early breaks in both sets to beat Roger Federer 7-6 (6), 7-5 Monday in the championship match at the ATP finals.

Federer broke Djokovicâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s serve to take a 2-0 lead in the first set, and then again to open to the second set, but the top-ranked Serb rebounded each time.

Djokovic It was Djokovicâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s second victory at the year-end tournament for the top eight players in the world.

Lakers hire Dâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Antoni as coach LOS ANGELES â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The Los Angeles Lakers hired Mike Dâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Antoni late Sunday night, signing the former coach of the Suns and Knicks to replace Mike Brown.

The Lakers confirmed the deal two days after the Lakers fired Brown five games into the season.

Dâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Antoni agreed to a three-year deal worth $12 million, with a team option for a fourth season.

Dâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Antoni got the high-profile job running the 16-time NBA champions only after the clubâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top brass extensively discussed the job with former Lakers coach Phil Jackson.

Openers change little of Top 25 The opening weekend of the 2012-13 college basketball season did little to change The Associated Pressâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Top 25.

Led by Indiana and Louisville, the first seven

teams in the initial regular-season poll were the same as the preseason Top 25. The Hoosiers (1-0) were again a solid No. 1, receiving 46 firstplace votes from the 65-member national media panel. Louisville (1-0) was No. 1 on 18 ballots.

Kentucky (1-0), which received one first-place vote, was third, followed by Ohio State, Michigan, North Carolina State and Kansas.

Syracuse and Duke swapped places at Nos. 8 and 9 and Florida again rounded out the top 10.

The only newcomer to the poll is Connecticut (1-0), which jumped in at No. 23 after beating then-No. 14 Michigan State (0-1) in a game played in Germany.

season tipping off on Dec. 4, Law said some nonfootball players might get more of a chance to play early on, which could help the Firebirds in the long run.

“You make the best of the situation,” he said.

Other FSHS teams were without football players, too, Monday. The boys swimming team missed Jake Rogers, while the wrestling team’s Tyler Sampson, Reid Buckingham and Stan and Sam Skwarlo still were in pads and helmets.

At Lawrence High, the basketball team’s Drake Hofer and wrestlers Hunter Haralson, Alex Jones and Ryan Bellinger wished they could say the same. The Lions’ Friday loss to SMW (10-1) ended the gridiron portion of their multi-sport years.

Haralson said the transition from the end of one season to the start of another didn’t come easily.

“I’m gonna really miss football, but after that hard loss, it’s time to go back to work for wrestling,” the senior said. “A state championship is what it’s all about this year.”

Kansas City’s only other victory this season came in overtime, a stunning upset in New Orleans in September. Any chance at a repeat faded when Cassel’s pass on the second play of extra period landed in the hands of Timmons, who returned it 23 yards to set up Suisham’s second game-winning field goal of the season.

The victory, however, came at a high cost.

Roethlisberger is in the midst of a career year but struggled through a so-so first half and was 9 of 18 for 84 yards and a touchdown when Hali came down on top of him while taking a sack on Pittsburgh’s first possession of the second half.

The Chiefs had one touchdown called back due to a penalty and another overturned on replay. But the team ranked last in the NFL in turnover margin saved its biggest mistake for overtime.

FSHS girls basketball The only thing Free State girls basketball coach Bryan Duncan had to worry about on the first day of tryouts was slowing things down for the underclassmen who were coming in new to the program.

“There’s gonna be lots of mistakes and shooting won’t be very good and things of that nature,” Duncan said.

The first days of the preseason schedule are long for Duncan’s Firebirds staff, because all the coaches evaluate players at two different sessions.

“We want to get it right and have all of our eyes on all of the kids and get things worked out,” Duncan said.

LAWRENCE HIGH SENIOR DERRICK WILLIAMS GOES IN FOR A LAYUP during the first day of basketball practice on Monday at LHS. When the three days of tryouts end and teams are set, Duncan said Free State’s experienced and deep senior class — led

by Kennedy Kirkpatrick — should be an exciting group to coach.

FSHS boys swimming Annette McDonald spent Monday afternoon introducing the boys swimming team to the organization of practices. She wanted the Firebirds to get used to their routine, which included swimming in groups with lane leaders and everyone contributing feedback.

With it being the first day, she had to spend a lot of time on rules and expectations, too.

“Some kids that are new to the program were surprised. ‘You practice six days a week? Are you kidding?’ So that was kind of fun,” McDonald related.

The coach had 32 athletes at the first day of practice, a new record in her time as coach.

FSHS wrestling No one in the city began the winter sports season before Free State’s wrestlers. Because FSHS wrestling coach Mike Gillman and assistant Brett Romme both serve on Bob Lisher’s Free State football staff, the only time they could conduct practice was at 6 a.m.

Gillman said the wrestlers were a little groggy to start, but overcame it with their enthusiasm for the new season. The coaches covered some wrestling basics, but so many had wrestling experience that it made things pretty easy.

“I’m really excited about the young kids we’ve got coming in who are eager to get into wrestling,” Gillman said.

LHS boys basketball Coach Mike Lewis didn’t want players tight or uncomfortable at the first day of Lawrence High boys basketball tryouts.

“We really stress when the guys come in to relax and create a real positive vibe in the gym,” Lewis said. “If you get that accomplished in the first 30, 40 minutes, everybody can really play and show off some of their skills.”

The Lions went through half-court and full-court drills as individuals and groups while the LHS coaching staff assessed.

“We’re looking for kids who are coachable,” Lewis said, “and who are focused in and able to take instruction and do something with it.”

Absent from the first day of tryouts were two starters from last year’s team — Bryce Montes de Oca and Shane Willoughby — both of whom decided to focus on baseball.

LHS girls basketball The worst part about the first day of tryouts for LHS girls basketball coach Nick Wood was the idea of having to make cuts Wednesday night.

“It’s hard to tell somebody, ‘Sorry, we can’t have you be a part of our program.’ That always a hard thing to handle,” Wood said.

Then again, the excitement of finding the pieces to get the program going in the right direction helps make up for it.

“At the same time, you’re ready to get through tryouts and get going on what we really need to be doing to get ourselves ready for Emporia for our first game (Dec. 30, at LHS),” Wood said.

The Lions’ first normal practice will come on Thursday, when a group of 50 players has been whittled down to 35 or so.

LHS boys swimming After Kent McDonald had members of the boys swimming team check out lockers and go over expectations, such as when they will be practicing during school breaks, the Lions got into the water at their first day of practice.

McDonald said he had four lanes of experienced swimmers, and he figured it would be best to ease them into the rigors of swimming workouts.

“At first you just let them swim for a while and wear themselves out, and then we can start working on technique,” the coach said.

According to McDonald, the Lions (even those who ran cross country in the fall) all looked tired when they got done.

KANSAS BASKETBALL NOTEBOOK

KU recruit Embiid to announce today

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

ATLANTA â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Joel Embiid, a 7-foot, 220-pound senior basketball center from The Rock School in Gainesville, Fla., will announce his college choice today, his high school coach said Monday.

Embiid, a native of Cameroon who recently narrowed his choices to Kansas University, Florida and Texas, is expected to reveal his pick via Twitter, The Rock coach Justin Harden told the JournalWorld.

The schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Twitter handle is @therockhoops. No time for the announcement has been scheduled.

Embiid is currently unranked by Rivals.com, in large part because he has played organized basketball for just over one year. He visited KU for Late Night in the Phog and also visited Texas, Florida, Marquette and Virginia.

The first day of the week-long early signing period is Wednesday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He is a surprise to me and Embiid a pleasant one at that,â&#x20AC;? Harden told espn.com. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s every bit of 6-11. He can do a lot of good things with the ball.

Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only been playing 18 months. He was a volleyball player before that. â&#x20AC;&#x153;At 6-11, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s got an effortless shot,â&#x20AC;? Harden added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a long-term stock. With what heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been able to do in 18 months in terms of skill development (itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s impressive).

Once he gets consistent weight training the sky is the limit.â&#x20AC;?

Rivals.com officially lists Embiid at 7-foot, 220.

KU on Wednesday is expected to sign Conner Frankamp, 6-0, 160, Wichita North; Brannen Greene, 6-7, 200, Tift County High, Tifton, Ga.; Frank Mason, 5-11, 160, Massanutten Military Academy, Petersburg, Va.; and Wayne Selden, 6-5, 225, Tilton (N.H.) School. Greene is ranked No. 24, Selden No. 25, Frankamp No. 30 and Mason No. 133 by Rivals. com.

Embiid is planning on signing his letter with a yet-to-be-determined school in a ceremony at his school on Thursday.

Greene, by the way, is not expected to attend todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s KU-Michigan State game in Atlanta, which is about a three-hour drive from his home in Tifton.

He plans on watching the game on ESPN following his teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s practice.

MICHIGAN STATEâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S BRANDEN DAWSON (22) SHOOTS over Northwoodâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Dan Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brien during an exhibition game on Oct. 30 in East Lansing, Mich. Kansas University coach Bill Self expects Dawson and the Spartans to play fast and physical when they play the Jayhawks at 6 p.m. today in Atlanta.

Michigan State vs. Kansas

Classic CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B

â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s great to play a tough opponent. I really do,â&#x20AC;? Self said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I do think all coaches wish you had another week or two to get ready. Look at last year,â&#x20AC;? Self added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Four of our first five are Kentucky (loss), Georgetown (win), UCLA (win) and Duke (loss). That would probably be too much for this team. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll give us a great gauge of where we are at.

Certainly itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll help Michigan State as well.â&#x20AC;?

If the Jayhawks are to defeat the Spartans to even their record at 1-1 in the Champions Classic, they likely will have to overcome the size and physicality of 6-10 Payne and 6-9 Nix. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They keep you off your spot,â&#x20AC;? Self said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They are big at the 3 (small forward) with Dawson, who can play the 4 (power forward). I anticipate them being the same as always â&#x20AC;&#x201D; running really fast from defense to offense and rebounding as well as anybody in the country. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be a big challenge getting on the glass. How can we slow them down when they come at us? Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be the biggest key to the game. How can we eliminate them getting easy baskets? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Michigan State will expose us if we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t play well because theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll make us be an execution team since they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t give up easy baskets. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll try to figure out how tough we are in rebounding, going for loose balls. They are great at that and take pride in that. It will be interesting to see how our young guys react under the lights too. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one thing to play at home and be nervous.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s another thing to go on the road and have to do it somewhere else. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be a great experience for us.â&#x20AC;?

KU senior Travis Releford thinks the Jayhawks old and young will handle the pressure just fine.

vironment against that kind of team, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s good for us.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think the freshmen will react pretty well,â&#x20AC;? noted frosh guard Ben McLemore, who will start along with fellow rookie Perry Ellis. Red-shirt frosh Jamari Traylor is one of squadâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s key reserves. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think everybody is ready to play. Everybody is excited. I think this game will help us in the long run.â&#x20AC;?

â&#x20AC;&#x153;

Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a long-term stock. With what heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been able to do in 18 months in terms of skill development (itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s impressive). Once he gets consistent weight training the sky is the limit.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The Rock School coach Justin Harden of Gainesville, Fla., senior Joel Embiid six Final Four appearances and seven Big Ten crowns highlighting his resume.

The Iron Mountain, Mich., native has also led the scrappy, hardworking, ultra-physical Spartans to three Big Ten tournament titles and reached the NCAA Tourney 15 consecutive seasons. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll put them in helmets and pads. That dude is crazy,â&#x20AC;? KU coach Bill Self said with a laugh. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve only done that a few times.

He does it on a regular basis. I remember one time we were playing with helmets and pads (during a practice over Christmas break back in 2003-04). We were running secondary break and primary break. Guys are guarding each other.

Some guys liked it and some didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like it too much at all. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I remember Mike Lee liked it a lot,â&#x20AC;? Self added of the rugged former KU combo guard now an assistant coach at University of San Francisco. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve done a great job getting through to our guys yet. Toughness is not about physical strength. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a small part of it. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about not flinching, going after every ball with two hands, carrying out assignments when you just screwed up, thinking next play.

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to get better at that.â&#x20AC;?

History: Selfâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s KU teams have a 1-2 record vs. Izzoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s MSU teams. KU beat the Spartans, 81-74, on Nov. 25, 2003, in Allen Fieldhouse. KU fell to MSU twice in the 200809 campaign â&#x20AC;&#x201D; 75-62, on Jan. 10, 2009 in East Lansing, then 67-62, in the Sweet 16 of the NCAAs in Indianapolis. ... Overall, KU is 4-5 against MSU in a series that dates to 1960.

KU won, 96-86, in overtime in the 1986 NCAA Tournament Sweet 16 game in Kansas City, Mo. KU then defeated North Carolina State to advance to the Final Four in Dallas. In the next meeting, Michigan State defeated Kansas, 66-54, in the Great Eight on Dec. 7, 1999 in Chicago.

Quick healer: Michigan State sophomore Branden Dawson, who had ACL

surgery last spring, hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t missed a practice. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pretty impressive,â&#x20AC;? Self said of the quick recovery of the 6-6, 230-pound sophomore from Gary, Ind. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s comparable to Brandon (Rush, ACL at KU) even though Brandon tore his the first of June and was back in a limited role. This guy ... he was full speed the first of October.â&#x20AC;?

Noted MSU coach Izzo: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Maybe the best present is Branden Dawson is healthy. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s come back with no signs athletically of any issues. He hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t missed a practice, hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sat out a minute since weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got going.â&#x20AC;?

Dawson said he tries not to dwell on the injury. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Coach asked me the same thing; he asked do I think about it, do I have any pain? I just tell him that when I go out on the court I have been doing this since I was 7 years old. This is something I love, so when I go out there, I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think about it. When you think about it, you start thinking something will happen,â&#x20AC;?

Dawson said.

Like Dawson, KU senior Elijah Johnson is from Gary, Ind. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know him.

I ran across him. He played high school ball with my cousin,â&#x20AC;? Johnson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been hearing about him for some years.â&#x20AC;?

Dawsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s take on the match-up: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Kansas is a great team. They made it to the national championship last year, came in second place. (Their) tall guy Withey is a 7-footer.

Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s great, an NBA prospect. Elijah Johnson is from Gary (Ind.). They have really good guards and a really good team and good coach. We have to come out and execute our offense.â&#x20AC;?

KU players on MSU: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got a good coach. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got a good program. They are going to play Big Ten style,â&#x20AC;? Johnson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got bigs who are pretty strong. They like to push the ball and score in transition. We have to be tough on the glass. The guards have to help the bigs on the glass.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;They are a good transition team. They like to get up and down the court. Michigan State will be a great team to play,â&#x20AC;? Ben McLemore said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The key thing for us is just go out and play the game of basketball, play as a team. Offensively itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll come to us and play defense.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Michigan State is known for being physical,â&#x20AC;? Jeff Withey said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They are part of the Big Ten. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be a tough game. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re looking forward to it, though. It will be a tough, physical game.â&#x20AC;?

43 Muckraker Tarbell

Dear Annie: My cousin “Tyler,” who had a host of problems as a teenager, became a policeman at age 23. He was a jerk before he joined up, but now he’s become a bigger jerk.

Tyler is always bragging that he can fix parking tickets or give you a ticket just for annoying him. He talks back to people constantly, always trying to have the last word. It’s awful, and it makes family gatherings impossible.

I’ve asked Tyler politely to behave more appropriately, but of course, he won’t listen. I’ve walked out of family dinners and made it clear why. I’ve even spoken to my family about it, but they refuse to avoid occasions just because of Tyler, even though after these gatherings my mother vents to me in the car.

I can’t take this anymore, and I now avoid Tyler at all costs. I’m

thinking of videotaping him and showing his superiors. I would not trust this man to carry a gun, serve warrants or make arrests. I’m afraid he’s going to do something rash and someone will get hurt, and I’ll have to testify against him at his trial. If any police out there are reading this, I’d like to know what they think. — No State Dear No State: Earning a badge would not change Tyler from a jerk into a responsible adult, but it does increase the fear levels. However, if

‘Mankind’ puts history on History Josh Brolin narrates “Mankind: The Story of All of Us” (8 p.m., History), a six-part series. This is a follow-up of sorts to “America: The Story of Us.” Gosh, I was waiting for “Belgium: The Story of Them.”

Broad survey histories are the kind of films that give history documentaries a bad name. Narratives that try to encompass “the history of mankind” are so vast as to be slightly absurd. In history, as in fiction, good storytelling requires a particular narrative angle. Take “The Da Vinci Code” by Dan Brown, a preposterously popular book.

If he had merely written a fictional tome filled with arcane detours into the history of Western art, architecture and early Christianity, most readers would have passed. But because he approached it as a symbol-laden detective story shot through with bizarre conspiracy theories, readers would follow him anywhere.

Mankind” is a handsome effort filled with cinematic reenactments, but it is literally all over the map. History marches on at a startling clip. We go several billion years from the Big Bang to the “dawn of man” (yes, it uses that hackneyed phrase) in about two minutes.

Four minutes later, we’ve invented fire and cooking. Cable star Anthony Bourdain makes an appearance to tell us (very briefly) how important cooking is to culture. About 45 seconds later, newscaster Brian Williams gushes about prehistoric cave paintings. Can early agriculture be far behind? Wait half a minute and you’ll find out!

All the same, it’s nice to see history on the History Channel, instead of “Ancient Aliens” and “Pawn Stars.” For disappointed viewers, there’s always “Hardcore Pawn” (8 p.m., truTV).

Tonight’s other highlights:

Tales of adoption on “Raising Hope” (7 p.m., Fox).

Jess needs a job on “New Girl” (8 p.m., Fox).

Professional help on “The Mindy Project” (8:30 p.m., Fox).

“Frontline” (8:30 p.m., PBS) examines assisted-suicide laws in Oregon and Washington.

Savino wants a friendly mayor on “Vegas” (9 p.m., CBS).

Kristina barely copes on “Parenthood” (9 p.m., NBC).

Quicksand beckons on “Covert Affairs” (9 p.m., USA).

Jax gets busy and expects the worst on “Sons of Anarchy” (9 p.m., FX).

Your parents get to handle Tyler however they choose, so please stop trying to dictate their actions.

Dear Annie: I’m one of several people planning our upcoming high school reunion for the class of 1962. There are a few people who have never attended any of our reunions.

I know my classmates didn’t have the same high school experience I did. But for the life of me, the one excuse I can’t get my head around is, “I haven’t been a success.” Success means so many things and is different for every person.

It makes me sad to think

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Tuesday, Nov. 13: This year you could experience important yet surprising changes.

You might even see a change on the professional front or in your relationship status. If you are single, you meet a lot of potential suitors.

If you are attached, your sweetie is adjusting to all the changes.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) Others will not be happy unless you give them the full attention they feel they deserve. Communication falls into the proverbial situation where everyone only hears what they want and nothing more.

Tonight: Relax with a less stressful person.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) Defer to others, as they are so demanding that you have little choice. You might feel as if many people do not understand what you are sharing. Tonight: Go with someone else’s choice.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) Stay even-tempered.

Focus on accomplishing as much as possible today. Tonight: Squeeze in some exercise.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) Others could be tumultuous to watch. Communication might be confusing, and your reaction could take you down an odd path as a result. Tonight: Let the fun begin.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) Instinctively, you want to retreat from others. People could be overly demanding and not into negotiating. Tonight: Make it nonstressful.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Your personality comes

someone would stay away because of that.

Please tell those who feel they cannot attend reunions because they aren’t “successful”: We miss you and want to see you on this side of heaven. Time is short and very precious, and we want to spend some of it with you. — Sad 50th HS Reunion Dear Reunion: You have made a heartfelt plea for people to attend such functions regardless of their personal insecurities. It is not uncommon for attendees to judge themselves against others’ accomplishments, but by the time a 50th reunion rolls around, such fears are meaningless. We know that some people had such a terrible high school experience that they have no desire to relive it in any form, and they shouldn’t be pressured. But for the rest of you, please go.

out in a discussion, which might surprise a business associate. You always are so professional, and people expect nothing less. Tonight: Have an important discussion over dinner.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You are totally occupied with your finances right now. Unless you have the ability to pull white rabbits out of black hats, you are unlikely to find a money tree in your backyard. Tonight: Spend wisely.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You could be overwhelmed by the many possibilities you see. As a result of the enormous amount of activity and tasks you have taken on, you have become rather me-oriented. Tonight: All smiles.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Lying low is acceptable if you are feeling drained. A discussion with a friend or loved one might help. Tonight: Not to be found.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Emphasize what you want, and focus on that very thing.

Friends surround you, but their moods might be volatile and unpredictable. Tonight: Where the fun is.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Others can’t seem to concentrate or handle a particular problem. Your popularity skyrockets as others reveal how much they need you and want your support.

Tonight: A force to be dealt with.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) Believe that there is a solution, and you just have not found it yet. Remain confident and detach from the immediate issue. Tonight: Follow the music.
